CUPERTINO, Calif. -- Customers Can Remove Uncertainty, Benefiting from NetManage's Solid Migration Support and 15 Years of Connectivity and Integration Experience

NetManage, Inc. (NASDAQ:NETM), a leading software company that provides solutions for accessing, Web enabling and integrating enterprise information systems, today announced a new program that offers customers presently using Attachmate and WRQ solutions a clear migration path to the comprehensive NetManage product portfolio. Called NetManage Now!, the program offers seamless and risk-free migration, along with comprehensive ongoing maintenance and support, to a product suite that has a stable roadmap backed by 15 years of experience and market innovation.

"The host access and integration market has consolidated significantly during the past year mainly through acquisitions," said Zvi Alon, chairman, president and CEO of NetManage. "These acquisitions have left customers concerned about the continued viability of existing solutions, unsure about the future of the products they presently use and worried about ongoing product support. Customers desire corporate stability, market leading solutions and the type of clarity and consistency in product direction that NetManage has provided for 15 years as evidenced through the ongoing enhancements in our software solutions and the support we provide for our more than 10,000 customers and 30,000,000 end users."
